Sata Factor Is RB’s Only Barrier – Tayali
President Sata
The Zambian Voice says former President Rupiah Banda’s can only stand a chance of being reelected President in the absence of the Michael Sata factor.
Executive Director Chilufya Tayali says he believes that apart from President Sata there is no one else from the current crop of politicians who can match former President Banda in an election.
Mr. Tayali observes that Mr. Banda stands a chance of being re-elected now because the political environment is different from that of 2011 in which he lost the presidential elections to President Sata.
He has told Qfm News in an interview that in 2011, Mr. Banda stood on the MMD which had been in power for a period of 20 year and people were therefore fatigued with the MMD and wanted change.
Mr. Tayali says the best political vehicle he thinks Mr. Banda can use to make a political comeback is the opposition Alliance which currently comprises the MMD, Alliance for Better Zambia (ABZ) Zambians for Empowerment and Development (ZED) People’s Party and All People’ Congress (APC).
He says if the opposition Alliance allows Mr. Banda to be its President and stands in the 2016 general elections it will show political maturity on part of leaders in the Alliance themselves.
Mr Tayali states that Mr. Banda is already a respected father figure and has the advantage of being an old politician besides having a unifying disposition.

Alesabailafye uyu, where will Banda get cash for campaign because Banda can’t convince electorates without money. He has no such capabilities to use inteligency like sata.

@Tayali-Some opinions are very retrogressive.Zambia @ 50 should move foward and see whether indeed the country has also grown to the extent of not lacking Leadership other than those who’ve been there since 1964.So this Rupiah comeback nosense should be ignored.I believe Zambia @ 50 can not lack enough Leadership reseviour to pick from.Leadership who can easily relate to the current and modern trends.Leadership who’re part of the mess caused are not the best of Leaders to see Zambia out of the mess themselves created.

God’s Murders for Stupid Reasons:
Kill Brats
From there Elisha went up to Bethel. While he was on his way, some small boys came out of the city and jeered at him. “Go up baldhead,” they shouted, “go up baldhead!” The prophet turned and saw them, and he cursed them in the name of the Lord. Then two shebears came out of the woods and tore forty two of the children to pieces. (2 Kings 2:23-24 NAB)

Murdering Children
Kill Sons of Sinners
Make ready to slaughter his sons for the guilt of their fathers; Lest they rise and posses the earth, and fill the breadth of the world with tyrants. (Isaiah 14:21 NAB)

Slavery in the Bible
However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance. You may treat your slaves like this, but the people of Israel, your relatives, must never be treated this way. (Leviticus 25:44-46 NLT)

The author is writing with his mouth full of milk scones from RB.
No one who takes over the presidency through death never wins an election, crosscheck with his sister from Malawi!

anyone who thinks well cannot propose Rupiah to become president again, after all we saw during his presidency. Lets compare the three years he was in office and the three years Michael has been in office. pipo lets rupiah rest with his children, they stole enough. only a fool can think about his comeback. Not even Nevers can allow it. Think of other young leaders

If such a situation arose, I’d even vote for Winter Kabwamba as an independent presidential candidate.

The only problem here is blog us on this site are childish…There is no need to insult tiyali here, thats his opinion. the best thing to do as blog us is to also debt objectively an like saying tayali is speaking with the mouth full of milk and scones from RB that childish.
